Dev4X is leading a community of technology developers and education experts to develop an open source platform to autonomously teach children in the most challenging environments to read, write, and perform basic numeracy within 18 months. This effort, called the Moonshot Education Project, aims to provide a 10X improvement in the education of the world’s poorest children, to reach a billion children in the next 10 years, and to do so at a 100th the cost of current approaches.

Dev4X has been assembling a community to develop an Open Source platform around what they are calling the Moonshot Education Project. A project that is aiming to provide a 10X improvement in the education of the poorest children, reach a billion children in the next 10 years and do so for 100th the cost of current approaches. It was with great excitement that we learnt of the Global Learning XPRIZE being launched today that seeks to incentivize teams from around the world to pursue a very similar goal. This XPRIZE will catalyze the growth of of a community and provide the much needed support and resources required to solve this grand challenge.
